High Waist Vs Low Waist





2 days ago, my doter spotted me wearing my low waisted jeans. I actually don't know what got into me
to get a pair of these jeans that just hug on to your hips bones. It's may feel sexy when one is in them but it's also a pain to be making sure that it stays on the hips!




She casually told me that the latest in thing is for jeans with high waist.








Good, I told her, then I can rummage for my old jeans and make myself a fashionable with my 'in-season' jeans.




Jas made a remark that goes like this



'Just make sure you still can squeeze all your waist into the jeans'

WEEKENDS MENU

Today I am already thinking what to cook for tomorrow's lunch..yadda yadda, I may not be a good cook or excel in any dish, but I do try to spoilt my doters (& my more than better half) on my off days. After all, that's what moms are for, to spoilt the kids rotten.. (hahha. and we always accuse the grandparents as the culprits).

Since it will be a market day, I can get lot of fresh products and cook up some nice dishes. Thinking of getting pig innards, for my chee yoke fun, drizzle with lards. Me salivating & drooling lioa. Instead of kueh teow, I will try it with Mee Fun Kueh instead. Add some prawns for the extra oooommmpps...and with some chili padi in soya sauce (slight hints of garlic perhaps too).

Ok, must write my 'to buy list' for tomorrow, o/wise I sure forget some stuffs.

BE HAPPY, DON'T WORRY

Today my cancer-stricken friend told me she will be undergoing an operation to remove cancerous lymph nodes around her neck area.

FYI, Lymph nodes are found all through the body, and act as filters or traps for foreign particles. They are important in the proper functioning of the immune system (this is taken from wikipedia).

She has several recurrences and had done other surgeries to remove cancerous organs.

That led me to think that a healthy life is indeed important. One may have all the wealth but wealth does not equal health. With health, you can find more wealth but not the other way round. Wealth can only help to sustain a healthy lifestyle, or prolong one's expiry date.

Personally, I think the first step towards a healthy lifestyle is to be happy, don't keep grudges, inculcate good chi / vibes within oneself and family members.

Life is too short to be angry or disgruntled over petty matters. One never knows what tomorrow will bring!

My first Nuffnang Cheque

After serving Nuffnang for ‘dokey’ years, ok ..not so exaggerated..’dokey’ months, I get to cash out my first payment ..lalalala..the amount is RM 56.98.

Emm..wonder what this amount can get me ..well, a pair of new shoes (or sandals more likely), another new dress (or a blouse or skirts).. or maybe a new trinkets purse ..nope too many of those already,. I shall try to keep my vow & resolution ..no buying of non-important & essential stuffs.

This amount shall then be spent on....emmmmmmmmm...still can't decide..

My First Pair of Bloch


I am like a little girl whom got her first BARBIE doll. Having been line-dancing for 6 years (or more), I finally own a pair of BLOCH dancing sneakers. Been too kam siap (stingy) to get a pair from my LD instructors.
I have 2 pairs of Sasha (1 pair having gone to Sneakers Heaven) and 1 pair of OEM, all of them black in colour.



My cousin Feli in Mel told me Bloch was having discount at one of their outlets and this Slingshot model, available in Red & Black) was going at 50% . Ori price = AUD= 129.95 x 2.634 = RM343./pair.



I chose Red, cos it was fiery and hot!


Unfortunately, Red was no available in my size (I have dainty feet like Cinderella mah)..yadda yadda go far far away to puke..



So settle for Black ...my aunt & uncle, whom happened to be on vacation there, was my courier couple..thanks so much Feli & Uncle/Aunt!! It's nice to have connection ..


Feli, please look out for more good bargains for me & I don't mind another pair of dancing sneakers as X'mas gift..










Happy Feets are here..

Moms Know Best


Jas is sleeping like a log now (or a pig, some may say so). She is so so tired out from her coco class y'day. Coco as in curriculum and not coco the chocolate drink or food..

She joined gym..thinking that she could tone some of her muscles and in the process maybe lose some weights, bits of it here and there.

Last week, she ran around the auditorium..this week, she had to do stuff like 'arm bridge' and hold on to that position for a minute to gain 5 points..

Well, this is definitely not her cup of tea. She is totally exhausted and look 'wasted'..hahaha..

Have told her to take contemporary dance. Thinking that this will only involved cultural dances and some boring movements, she chose gym.. And now she learnt that in contemporary class, the have hip-hops, break dance and salsa, latin...activities she like..

well, as the saying goes..moms always know best..so next time listen to your mum's advice.
